The two '50s teams who won just one NFL title during that very decade. Each won eight games during the regular season. Is it the almost-50-year precursor to 'Greatest Show', or is it the very squad who had Lombardi at OC and Landry at DC? My initial gut reaction would go with the latter simply for being more-balanced and...yes, having those two coordinators on each side of ball.

To win the title, the 51 Rams had to defeat a Browns team that was 11-1 and at the peak of their powers. 56 Giants split with a Browns team that finished 5-7. Nuff said.
